Rich, flaky, and full of Gulf Coast flavor, this blackened redfish delivers a bold crust with a bright lemon butter finish. Texan Heartland Blackened Seafood Seasoning brings paprika, pepper, herbs, citrus peel, mustard, celery seed, cayenne, and Aleppo pepper together for a savory, lightly spicy coating that makes simple fish taste like a restaurant-worthy meal.
Ingredients
4 redfish fillets, about 6 ounces each
2 tablespoons olive oil
1½ tablespoons Texan Heartland Blackened Seafood Seasoning
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest, optional
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley, optional
Lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
Prepare the fish: Pat redfish fillets dry with paper towels to help the seasoning form a better crust.
Season the fillets: Rub both sides of the fish with olive oil, then coat evenly with Texan Heartland Blackened Seafood Seasoning.
Heat the skillet: Place a large cast-iron or heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until hot.
Sear the fish: Cook fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until blackened on the outside and flaky in the center.
Make the lemon butter: Reduce heat to low, then add butter, lemon juice, and lemon zest if using.
Finish the fish: Spoon the lemon butter over the fillets for 30-60 seconds.
Serve hot: Transfer to plates, garnish with parsley if desired, and serve with lemon wedges.
